This week was tough for Eduardo Salvio's family. His mother Cristina, known as "La Tota" , had to undergo an operation for a serious inconvenience. The intervention proved to be successful, but she was admitted to intensive care to be under the observation of professionals.
Despite the bad moment, the Boca soccer player decided not to be absent from the practice of the club and was seen training with the rest of his teammates who are preparing for the commitment against Atlético Tucumán, for the Super League.
For months, the Salvio family has been going through complicated days. It is that La Tota was diagnosed with cancer. "My mother is with cancer and so much for my family, for my brothers, for my dad and for me it is a very sad, hard stage," said the midfielder who came from Portugal to play at the Ribera club.
As soon as the sad news was known, Eduardo received messages of support from colleagues and fans. "I want to thank you all for your messages of support and affection for my old woman. She is strong and will be all right. Thank you!" He published in an Instagram story.
Salvio's mother, Boca's fierce confession, was one of the main responsible for her son returning to local football. His passion for Xeneize made the former midfielder of the Argentine National Team arrive at the club.
